I forgot to post the nice comparison pics of the Manolo Villa at 9190 SW 57 Ave (also used in World of Trouble). Click to enlarge!

ENJOY!

Today I checked onsite if my triangulation done from Europe that the Crockett nightmare scene was filmed exactly in front of the Raleigh (1777 Collins). I was right and I found the right spot immediately.
 

Below are pictures I took today. But: The Raleigh, another Art Deco landmark used in Over the line is gone and was completely razed and will be rebuild as a developer project. Crane was working today.

The Richmond next to it was also razed completely. The South seas hotel is closed and under renovation.

The location of the Gutierrez murder (around the palm trees in the middle of the picture). The bathroom has been rebuilt, the wall next to it has been removed, thus it would be impossible to locate today.

In the background we see the Winterhaven where Crockett&Tubbs were watching the (prior) bathroom building in „Bushido“.

Here is the Raleigh front as of today. The main building still stands but the historic pool area that was used in Over the line has been razed completely.

Clevelander pool in the 80s where Tubbs met the crazy lady (photo looks southwest). Here we see that the southern part of the Clevelander was still undeveloped, with a parking lot (the one shown in Viking bikers of hell). Later this southern part of the Clevelander lot was replaced by a building. In the background we see the Edward Hotel, also used in this episode for the clinic interiors.

The Manola House, taken Today as I was in South Miami, featured heavily throughout the Season 4 finale “Mirror Image”  from 1988  and also seen a year later in Season 5s World of Trouble as Librizzi’s place
The house in the South Miami \ Pinecrest section is at 9190 Sw57th Ave. Still looks very good indeed - in the late afternoon light.:hippie:

This reminds me so much of the Villa Savoye by the world renowned architect, Le Corbusier, located west of Paris, in Poissy.  That landmark was begun in 1928 so this Miami modern structure is not exactly a new concept.  I often show the Villa Savoye and also Gerrit Rietveld’s Mondrian inspired Schröder House in Utrecht, Holland as examples of modernism when none of my students believe me that the 1920’s is really the beginning of modernism, historically speaking.
